From their self-titled debut via their worldwide breakthrough album, The Number of the Beast, to the most recent masterpiece, A Matter of Life and Death, for more than 30 years Iron Maiden has been at the forefront of Metal, selling more than 80 million albums and packing out arenas and stadiums worldwide. Renowned for their spectacular stage sets and uncompromising musicianship, during their ‘08-‘09 “Somewhere Back in Time World Tour” alone they headlined in an astonishing 38 countries to two million fans. As vital and exciting as ever, Maiden never fails to put on the best possible show for their fans and give even the biggest stadium the atmosphere of a club show with their intense communication with an audience.
Iron Maiden’s new album, The Final Frontier, is expected to be released in late summer.
Iron Maiden vocalist Bruce Dickinson says, “We really wanted to get out and play some shows before the release of the new album later this year, so we thought what better way to kick off the tour than by going back to Canada and the USA where fans gave us such a fantastic reception during our last tour in 2008! We were astounded to see so many thousands of fans packing out the venues, so this time round we will be playing a few more cities we haven’t visited for some time, like Dallas, Saskatoon, Detroit, Denver and Pittsburgh, though logistically we couldn’t get to a few places we really like to play, which is a shame. It’s also great news that our friends Dream Theater are able to join us as special guests.”
“We’re still working on the set list for these summer shows, but this time it will cover the whole history of the band, and I can hint that we will be playing a taster from the new album. We already have the designs for the new “Final Frontier” stage show which we are building to bring out with us, so this summer tour will be a bit of a preview for the fans. It’s certainly looking very spectacular at this stage and with a brand new Eddie and an amazing light show!”
Dream Theater’s Mike Portnoy comments, “Touring with Iron Maiden in North America is a bit of a dream come true for us! After 25 years together, at this stage in our career there's honestly only three bands Dream Theater would consider opening for...and Maiden is one of them! It is an absolute honor. Through the years, we've done many one-off shows with Maiden and they've almost all been overseas..so it is very exciting to finally be doing a full tour with them...and on our side of the pond no less!!! The tour visits regions in the US - like Texas and the South-West - that we haven't played in many years, as well as some Canadian cities that have rarely if ever had the chance to see Dream Theater so it’s very exciting for us to get to play for our fans in these places. This is gonna be an amazing show that the fans won't wanna miss....Up The F***ing Irons!”
The Final Frontier World tour is part of the Belle Tire Concert Series.
